From MSNBC:
A member of Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry’s legal team said he’ll step down after receiving a citation accusing him of soliciting a prostitute. He denied the charges.I'm sure something was seared - seared into memory there...will it be this:
Melvin “Butch” Hollowell, 44, was expected to appear in court Tuesday, a week after deputies saw the attorney pick up a woman near his Detroit home, authorities said.
His attorney Gerald Evelyn said the woman had appeared to be in trouble and that Hollowell was driving her to a police station.Maybe. What does the campaign have to say:
“The officers indicated that the woman was a known prostitute,” Hollowell said. “No one was more surprised and embarrassed than me when the officers told me this.
“I am confident that these untrue charges will be dismissed quickly and I will be completely cleared.”
The Kerry campaign has declined to comment. “We’re still collecting information,” said Rodell Mollineau, a Kerry spokesman.We'll get an official statement from them that actually means something right after we learn about Kerry's "Magic Hat" and he releases his military records.
Hollowell, by the way, was a member of Al Gore's legal team that oversaw the Florida recount debacle.
